Kinda weird thinking of the pacific northwest as a hotbed of industrial radicalism. Now i guess it's pretty much just like that Portlandia show?nah its still pretty left as far as contemporary american politics goes
so its pretty much just like tha--DAMMIT JOOLS
swampman posted:Hi. I went to May day occupation march. I found other bikers and proceeded to bike bloc / critical mass with them. We outwitted the moped riding elmer fudd lookalike contestants and by misdirecting, redirecting, and blocking them, helped the wildcat march take and retake the streets on foot. Then I got arrested for swearing at an undercover cop, a lot, because I saw him throw some woman to the ground, and then I found out he was a cop. Then spent about 30 hours in jail. I am charged with disorderly conduct! And not just on the LF forums!
Yikes! My wallet! Hope all is well

Meanwhile, over here in reality, swearing at a cop isn't illegal, so, enjoy your fantasy world of pretend make-believe

stegosaurus posted:I get embarassed if I forget to take my bike gloves off in a store, because i see so many people walking their bikes or walking round wearing those bike caps or their bags when their bike is nowhere in sight, and at every vaguely leftish thing around here people are inevitably standing around or walking around pushing their bike, as if the bike by itself means anything. its gross, it makes me want to a) buy a bronco and lift that shit up about nine inches, and b) shout put my hands up and shout, put my hands up and put my hands up
this is why you never dismount. ride out your front door, down the stairs, to work, into the elevator, down the hall to your desk, in 52/11 all the way. ameen.

The best thing about America is that you can do absolutely anything to anyone, no matter how horrible, and as long as you apologize they're cool. but if you don't apologise they will figure out a way to pay you back in the most horrible and spectacular way possible, that's my experience at least, and I think a lot of films back me up

thats why we dont apologize for slavery. because that would be rude and impose a lot of implied obligations of docility and acceptance on african americans
Keven posted:Hahaha yeah so we found this dickhole's house on google maps and me and only myself went ahead and drove out there and I got out of the car across the street, pulled off my sunglasses and unveiled my "Right Bird" at that house and it made basically that sound thats at the end of every movie trailer like THRUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM and there were Distortions in the environment and the entire house became nothing but rubble. Before I drive away I threw out a single pair of child sized vampire teeth and said "mystery solved."
